I installed this transfer switch so that I could run critical systems in my house when we lose power. Finding a 50 AMP switch was difficult but Northern had it in stock. Worked great, seems to be very well built and it was not difficult to hook up.
Product came in perfect condition. Installation wasn't too bad but I did have to do a flush mount with presented itself with additional challenges. If you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself consider hiring an electrician. Not for the novice DIYer
I have been putting these transfer switches in for over ten years. Most of all my customers like the ease of use. If it is installed correctly-(which is easy) you can't go wrong by flipping switches and back feeding. These transfer switches are well built, UL rated and very functional. I highly recommend the installation if you have a generator that is at least 5000 watts. It elliminates the cords and will power up a lot more of your house.
We are new to the area and are unfamiliar with some of the things we needed for our new home. We knew we wanted a backup generator for just in case but needed someone to give us advice about size and additional accessories to go along with it. The sales rep was very helpful and they even loaded it into my car for me. Thank you!
I bought this for my 12k generator because I did not want to go without power in the winter, again!!! Although ,I blame my electrician, this unit does not have 40 amp circuit to power my AC.
The Reliance transfer switch is perfect for my 10,000 watt generator. It has 4- 20 amp and 6-15 amp circuits, which matches with the circuits in my house exactly. It will be easy to install for anyone with wiring and electrical code knowledge. When the generator is needed it wil be very easy to transfer the load to it and back off when the power is restored.
After upgrading my standby system to a 12,500 generator to run all of my essentials in an emergency, we had to upgrade our old Reliance Transfer Switch (8 poles) to one to match the new generator. Safely switch to generator power without back feeding the main lines and having to turn off the main breaker input. While manual, it allows for the circuits to remain connected for line, off, and generator positions. Since I have solar panels as well, the solar main breaker must be pulled to keep from backfeeding to the main lines; this transfer switch allows for the feed from the solar to continue to feed to my main protected circuits through the transfer switch. Great product. Yes, you have to manually throw the breakers from line to generator, but that doesn't bother me. This is the best transfer switch for the money.
This product is easy install, but not for the faint of heart. You need an electrician to at least verify your install. But, an electrician can install very quickly and easy for you to understand if you observe. Satisfies home power generation needs for survival or convenience.
Was caught without power for 7 days after an ice storm. This was exactly what I thought it would be and so easy to follow instructions for a self install. Separates house power from generator power for safe operation without back feeding power to the grid.
Ice storm last year knocked power out for 6 days at my son's house - lost lots of tropical fish and other critters that couldn't take the cold. Now he has big genny and this is to hook it to the house. Easy install - screwed right to wall nest to house panel and sub-panel. The real plus were the marked wires being really long. Two of the circuits required the wires to go in and out of the main panel to the sub panel. Thought a splice would be needed but there was plenty of wire. We mounted our connection box right on the switch since it's right next to the basement door and the cord from the genny is long enough to reach. If I had to do it again, I'd hard wire the genny cord into the switch and then just coil it up on the wall until needed. - All those connectors run into some money.
